View ProfileYou won't be able to resist Chef Maiko's signature Japanese izakaya-style fried chicken. Marinated in a secret recipe then double fried, the result is crispy on the outside and unbelievably juicy and tender on the inside. The chicken is topped with a sprinkle of savory furikake and a squeeze of fresh lemon to brighten things up. You can pair them with a side of rice, noodles, or salad, but let's be real—these crispy bites of chicken are so tasty, we wouldn't blame you if you enjoyed them all on their own (and didn't want to share!)

Maiko Kyogoku grew up in New York in a restaurant-owning family, so food and hospitality is no stranger to her. After 15 years honing her experience leading operations for Daniel Boulud, the Bromberg Brothers and the Thompson Hotel group, Kyogoku opened Bessou Restaurant in 2016. The restaurant, whose name in Japanese loosely translates to “home away from home,” is a love letter to her Japanese heritage and the Japanese home cooking of her childhood. Bessou has been critically acclaimed by the New York Times, Zagat and Tasting Table and featured in Best of Lists for New York Magazine Grub Street and Time Out.
Kyogoku is excited to now share some of her Japanese home cooking at home with you.
